Over 150,000 of us in the UK have MS. It’s unpredictable and different for everyone. But it doesn’t have to be this way. We’re the MS Society. We understand what life’s like with MS. We're here for you through the highs, lows and everything in between. Together, we are strong enough to stop MS.

Story

A MASSIVE THANKS FOR EVERYONE'S FANTASTIC SUPPORT, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO BRAVED THE CROWDS TRACKSIDE! With a 3 week layoff due to tendinitis in my knee, I was very concerned about finishing at all. Fortunately, some intensive physio, a last minute change in insoles, some lots of frozen peas and plenty of motivation from sponsors I made it to the start line. I thought i'd give my 3hr target a good crack and went through the half marathon in 1h31. This proved unsustainable and a after a few walks in the closing 6 miles I crossed the line in 3hrs 19mins- a big relief! (Although I was beaten by a thunderbird I did beat Jordan and Gordon Ramsay) I'm really pleased to have taken part- it was an amazing event and i'd encourage anyone who's never taken part/seen it live to get involved. The atmosphere all around the course was buzzing with vibe and emotion. Again, a really big thanks to everyone from (a broken) Andy!
